The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
An adiabatic process is one that occurs without transfer of heat between a thermodynamic system and its surroundings; energy is transferred only as work.
The adiabatic compression of a gas causes a rise in temperature of the gas. Adiabatic expansion against pressure, or a spring, causes a drop in temperature.
Also,
In adiabatic process, volume and temperature are inter-related as
